Assignment Content

For this assignment, you will be developing a project plan to present to your stakeholders. In order to make this a meaningful assignment, it is important that you select a project that aligns with your current work situation or a potential future work environment of interest to you. Please use the definition of a project outlined in Section 1.1 of your textbook to help select your project. You will use what you have learned throughout this course to complete this project. 

You will also be including information from the knowledge gained in this unit regarding international projects since you have been advised that there is a possibility of the project being repeated in your company’s branch office in another country. Please choose a country for this assignment, and conduct some research on the country’s culture and environment.
